AS Ugly as Ingalls,.

The recent caustic interview between

Too Thorough, by Far.

Washington Critic: The other morn

ed to get "A list of the various exhibits
of the medical college. Full of the fire
of youth and careless of the difficulties
he was to encounter, he sharpened his
pencil and sailed out. The first exhibit
he encountered was q tremendous crowd
OF people around a little defenceless
urn containing cocoa, which was being
passed around in Lilliputlan cups.
Are you a doctor?" asked the gen.
tleman IN charge.
The reporter admitted that he wasn't,
but he had On uncle who was. This
entitled the reporter to a cup of cocoa
which he took in one small-sized con.
vulsive swallow with great gusto.
Passing a man with the prcttiest.

upon, the reporter reached the pepsin
stand, where he took enough pepsin to
enable him to digest the cocoa. Asmall

A CRAZY LOT.
What Would the World Have Done
Without Them

If'one would listen nowadays to the
alienists and the neurologists, many Of
the more noted men of genius were
crazy. DIR. c. H. Hughes, once super
intendent of the Fulton lunatic asylum,
and IA man who ranks among the fore
most in the diagnosis, treatment and
cure Of al remote or acute nervous
troubles, publishes a quarterly journal
in st. Lonis entitled The Alienist and
Neurologist. In the July number DR..
James &. Herman, of Omimago. has a
very peculiar article under the head of
Genius Not a Neurosis." To illus
trate his theory in this respect and
make logically plain his arguments, he
declares that Sappho, Lucretius, Mar
lowe, Ben Jonson, Wycherly, Tasso,
Moliere, Swift, Pope, Defoe, Rousseau,
Goldsmith, Samuel Johnson, Savage,
Cowper, Byron, Walter Scott, Cole
ridge, DeQuincey, Rogers, S%outhey.
Shelley. Emerson, SAKE, Poe and Victor
Hugo all suffered from insanity.
Then DIR. Herman goes on to analyzc
the insanity of each, to sustain its cause
and TO show why such insanity vas not
a neurosis or nerve trouble.
Ben JonsOn's insanity came from
govt. Sappho's from sexual perversions.
Bunyan's from sexual defects Of the
body. Wycherley's from debauchery.
Tasso's from h~eredity. Swift's from a n
acute nerve disease of the middle ear.
Moliere's from epilepsy. Pope's from n
want Of physical development. Defoe's
from age. Rousseau, like Pope, was
the victim of the unequal development
of mind and body at boyhoed. Samuel
Johnson's from inheritance. SCOTS
from white softening Of the brain.
Byron's from his family, Southey's and
Rogers from the breaking down Of
brain fiber. Coleridge's from opium
and De Quincey's also. Emerson's
from appoplexy. Poe's from strong
drink. Saxe's from what is known
lately as railroad spine" Victor
Hugo's directly from an insane an
cestry.
After getting through pretty well
with the poets, our doctor next takes
up Oliver Cromwell, Peter the Great,
the elder Pitt and Napoleon Bonaparte
among statesmen. Luther, Pascal and
Swedenborg among t~heologiaDs. Pfato,
Socrates and Soho%ppenhauer among
philosophers. Newton among scient-
lists. The elder Booth, John Wilkes
Booth, G.. l.. Fox, John Mccullough
and Barley Campbell among actors.
Paganini among musicians. Cromwell
vas insane at times from malaria. Pc
ter the Great from dissipation. Napo-
leon from epilepsy. Luther from
austerity. overwork and superstition.
Plato and Socrates from sexual per-
version, while Schoppenhauer sprang

The public entertainment at the court

the opening remarks in very neat and

remarks, and we hope more interest will
be taken in the school next spring. As
